Chapter 118: Treasures of the Ancient Kingdom
Hearing the word 'treasure hunting', I breathed a sigh of relief, and said in my heart, could it be that these people are also here to find the Black Lotus coffin?
Hurriedly asked: "What treasure are you looking for?" ”
Xiaodou Ding Song Baisuan was about to answer, when a big hand suddenly grabbed him by the collar from behind and lifted him up like a little chicken, and a strong man of medium stature said in a deep voice with an unkind face: "What are you muttering secretly?" Stay honest! ”
After saying that, with a wave of his arm, Song Baisuan's small body flew over, fortunately he was caught by Song Yice, the strong man didn't turn his head, and a pair of bloodshot eyes stared at the cage, his eyes were full of warning.
A few people quickly gathered around him, this strong man and these people were all brought by middle-aged men, they were not like the group of short men who wore uniform black cloth shirts, and they didn't talk much, on the contrary, since they rested in place, their team gathered together to chat, loose and free.
At this moment, several people gathered in front of the cage, pointing at me, listening to the accent is not a person from one place, Shaanxi, Hebei, Shandong, Northeast China.
There are some dialects that I don't understand, and a few words can be understood, probably arguing about what kind of monster I am, it turns out that this cage is called Tianzhuan, which is specially used to catch demons, and they saw Chi Lingzi using a cage to lock me up, and took it for granted that I was a monster.
In the end, the strong man of medium stature was annoyed by their noise, and drove them away with a vicious voice, while he sat down next to the unconscious Gu Meng, took out a piece of dry biscuit, and nibbled on it.
In front of the bonfire, two teams of people and horses gathered around boiling water to cook rice, and there was game in the mountain hunted by the middle-aged man in the pot, and I smelled the aroma of stewed meat and swallowed saliva secretly when I didn't eat dinner.
"Xiaoshanzi, get her something to eat." The strong man who had finished nibbling on the cake shouted to the man who was gathered around the pot to watch the fire.
The man looked like a thief and a thief, but he was not very old, and he heard the strong man call him. I took out half of the dough from the cloth pocket tied around my waist and threw it into the cage.
I picked up the dough, blew off the soil, and ate slowly, the bread was dry and hard, but it was better than nothing, and now the most important thing is to maintain your strength.
"Master Zhang, look at this monster alas~ It eats like a human!" Xiao Shanzi stared at the cage in amazement and shouted.
"Look at your pot. What so much nonsense! The strong man said angrily.
Let Xiao Shanzi have that voice. Nearly choked me to death, thumping my chest a few times before knocking the food down and looking up. Xiao Shanzi was afraid of the strong man's obscenity and did not dare to speak again, but his eyes were still fixed on me, and the curiosity in his little eyes was like that of a child who entered the zoo for the first time.
"Boy, you wait. I'll be the first to eat you! ”
"Alas, Master Zhang, look. Youkai talk to me! ”
"Don't mess with her!"
"We haven't seen a monster, can't we take a look?" Xiao Shanzi smiled flatteringly at the strong man who called Zhang Ye, and then looked at me again and said, "It's really the same as what is written in the book, it's weird and good-looking~"
"Look at what to see. Beware of looking into the eyes and not pulling it out! Zhang Ye picked up a small stone and threw it at Xiao Shanzi, and hit the kid's head impartially, in exchange for a wail.
The others at the campfire burst into laughter when they saw this. Someone said, "Do you dare to marry her as a wife?" ”
Xiao Shanzi rubbed his head with a red mark, and muttered, "Why don't you dare." But she was caught by Chiye......"
The Chi Ye in his mouth should be Chi Lingzi, and when it came to Chi Lingzi, another person lowered his voice and said, "You say, that one-eyed old Taoist can really refine the elixir of life?" ”
"Listen to his nonsense, if there is such a thing in the world, the emperor Lao Tzu can still be ousted!"
"Don't believe it, this elixir is true!"
They were talking about it when the four men in the cave came out, and the voices seemed to have been put on pause, and they immediately stopped moving.
"Zhangzi!" The middle-aged strong man beckoned to Zhang Ye, Zhang Ye immediately walked quickly to him, the middle-aged strong man whispered a few words in his ear, and then patted him on the shoulder, Zhang Ye nodded his head and glanced at a few people in front of the bonfire.
Three people stood up and walked into the cave with guns on their backs, the middle-aged man and Chi Lingzi walked to the fire and sat down, and Xiao Shanzi skewered the boiled meat on the branch and respectfully handed it to the two.
Chi Lingzi was about to open his mouth to bite the meat, when he suddenly raised his eyes to look at me, pointed to the cage and asked Xiaoshanzi next to him, "Has she eaten?" ”
Xiao Shanzi hurriedly responded: "Eat, eat, don't worry, hunger won't hurt her." ”
Chi Lingzi nodded with satisfaction and said, "This is a rare treasure in a thousand years, you must take care of it!" ”
Xiao Shanzi asked curiously, "Millennium?" What kind of baby is that? Isn't it ginseng essence? ”
Chi Lingzi sneered: "What is the ginseng calculation, she is much more valuable than that." ”
Xiao Shanzi's eyes changed, Chi Lingzi patronized and ate meat and didn't pay attention to the flash of light in his eyes, he smiled and promised that he would definitely take care of me, not a single hair is missing.
I know that this kid must not have made up his mind, the middle-aged man is a gangster, either he is a gangster, or he is the king of the mountain, I heard Chi Lingzi say that I am worth more than ginseng essence, I must be tempted, and I want to make a bad idea.
Sure enough, when the boy was walking around after eating, he took out a piece of meat and stuffed it into the cage, and smiled at me.
"Don't be afraid, eldest sister goblin, that old way is not a good thing, my brother will find a way to get you out, rest assured!"
"Well, if you can get me out, I'll turn you into a mountain of gold!"
"Really? Oh, that's great, big sister, you, you're okay! ”
"I ask you, what are you looking for in the mountains?"
"You are a fairy in this mountain, don't you know what treasure is hidden here?"
"I'll tell you the truth, I'm just passing by, looking at you people, curious to come and take a look."
"Oh, so that's the case, in fact, I don't know, Master Long only said that he brought his brothers to make a fortune, what kind of treasure is the ancient country!"
Ancient treasures? I secretly wondered, does that have anything to do with the Black Lotus Coffin? But why did they carry the ancient dream all the way?
Thinking of this, I looked at Gu Meng lying on the grass, her back to me, still motionless, if it weren't for the faint ups and downs of her body, which proved that she was still breathing, I would have wondered if she was dead.
"Why did you arrest her?" I glanced at Gu Meng and asked Xiao Shanzi.
"We didn't arrest her, that Yi wizard, saying she was a fairy." Xiao Shanzi obviously didn't believe it, and pouted.
With the order of the middle-aged man, that is, Long Ye, all the people who came with him gathered around him, and it seemed that they had eaten enough and rested, and they were going to arrange tasks to prepare for cave exploration and treasure hunting.
The short man on the other side was also whispering to his subordinates, his subordinates spoke Yi, the chief's Chinese was very stiff, and it was probably not Han Chinese, and the two sides arranged their own work. (To be continued.) )
